Since 1998 I went 2-3 times to attend the DAM PRATIROADH Adhibexan and told them to resist this senseless dam-- tell them to dig up the choked meanders from Dhamdhama to Mukalmua. Manirul must have entered later.
Dr Baruah spoke beautifully in DY365. I am trying to get the Video link for netters to see his 30 minutes superbly/unhesitatating put views.
